Still I see shorted Schottky diodes at the secondary side of SMPSUs with a few diodes in parallel?
The issue is you
assuming they are dead simply
because of paralleling. The corollary is, single diodes can't fail.
Actually, the diodes you see dying die due to overvoltage or overcurrent, basically exceeding the die temperature limit. In other words, the diodes are sized wrong. A single diode can be undersized, as well. If you have a single undersized diode and beef it up by paralleling two, it will do better. But it won't be twice as good.
Of course, as explained by many already, paralleling diodes is tricky because current likely isn't shared perfectly. Derating is needed, and inexperienced or "I don't care" engineer may not have any idea how much to derate. So it's one trap for the young players more. This said, in a power supply design, there are dozens of such tricky areas that require expertise. You can fail at any of them.
BTW I have never seen a failed paralleled double diode in a power supply.
